“Sparky!”
My heart leapt. I was about to yell his name, but the werewolf clamped down on me, stuffing my mouth with dry grass.
“Filthy human! I warned you about disrespecting
the Alpha. Or, you know what happens!” The
werewolf whispered in my ear, a low growl of

“Mmmph!” I could only make muffled noises, my
head jammed into the dirt.
I could hear footsteps approaching, then a
deep, gravelly voice.
“What’s going on? What’s all the racket?”
It was Sparky!
I struggled even harder, trying to lift my head.
He had to recognize me. He just had to.
But the werewolf read my mind, holding me
down.
“Fresh sacrifices, getting a little rowdy. Don’t
worry, Alpha, we’ll take care of it.”
“Mmm!” I tried to lift my head again. The
werewolf jammed his foot into the back of my

“Filthy human! You keep it up, I’ll break every
bone in your body! Sorry, Alpha, she almost got
filth on you.” The werewolf’s voice dripped with
slimy fake respect.
“If they’re for sacrifice, just kill them. All this
fuss is pointless.”
Sparky’s cold tone sent a shiver down my spine.
This dog wanted to kill his owner.
“Alpha, this one’s a beauty. Maybe we should

about to lift my head when I heard a chilling

“No thanks. Not into humans. Do what you
want, just don’t kill her. Plenty of brothers who
want a turn.”
Then I heard Sparky walk away.
My heart turned to ice.
The werewolf yanked me up, his eyes burning with lust.
“Filthy human, you better remember, it’s an
honor to breed with the werewolf clan! You do what I say, or you’re dead!”
He started tearing at my clothes.
I panicked, fighting like crazy.
“Stop it, you’re hurting me!”
But that only got me a harder beating.

Soon, my face and body were covered in
bruises and cuts. I thought I was going to pass
out.
No, no way!
From somewhere deep inside, I found the strength to spit the grass from my mouth. With
every ounce of my being, I screamed towards Sparky’s retreating figure.
“Sparky!”
I saw his figure freeze. In a flash, he was back,
kicking the werewolf away.
He grabbed me, holding me close, his voice trembling.
“Master? Is that you?”
